Has the pandemic made you think about extended travel time or a gap year?

I had a chat with Karlie Cummins who has been living in Bali for the past four years and runs a successful online business called Bali Buddies. Recently she explained to me some of the interesting trends she is seeing from her Bali loving audience during this time.

The new term these Bali lovers who are now looking for a 3-12 month stay are being called Tempat’s!

🧐Tempat = The Temporary Expat

🤗Fun fact - ‘tempat’ in Bahasa Indonesia means ‘the place’!

We all know that Bali is the place for everyone to enjoy and Karlie and her family are certainly doing that. To get a slight bit envious just head over to her instagram @balibuddies

OK I have met plenty of expats that have lived in Bali for about 6 years maybe 10 but imagine living in Bali for 18 years? WOW! Have a read how Georgia originally from Melbourne ended up in Bali in her 20s, created a fashion label and now with her partner is raising their gorgeous son. Georgia talks about her Bali life during COVID too.

10km hike before 9am to watch the sunrise from the top of active volcano Mt Batur! Always wanted to do it when we lived here and never got around to it - huge thanks @izjess for being my awesome climbing buddy! Woke up at 1am for the 2 hour drive to Kintamani and then climbed in the dark with a flashlight for 1hr 40 mins arriving at 5:30am in time for the 6am sunrise. Our 50yr old guide Ketut who often climbs twice a day was amazing - often there to catch me 🤣 #mtbatur #mountbatur #hiking #thankyouketut #batur #balivolcano #volcano
